An “allaround man” has become the first Canadian Minister to the United States in the person of Vincent Massey. Mr. Massey is a business man, former univer tron of the arts, amateur actor, anthropist and soldier. Like Americans who pursue one or the careers just mentioned, Mr. Ma gey is also a politician. The Canadian government considers him__ideal equipped to represent it at Washing- ton in the many and momentous mat- ters demanding attention at the hands IDr. Kel By the Associated Press. BATTLE CREEK, Mich., February 18.—The farm of the future, without animals, except possibly a horse for riding, and without fowls, except for “decorative purposes,” was envisioned vesterday by Dr. J. H. Kellogg, 75- vear-old advocate of a vegetable diet. For the products of farm animals and fowls he would substitute “a few walnut or hickory nut trees in the back yard and along the highways, with field crops of soy beans and pea- nuts.” He admitted, however, that prepara-| tion must he gradual for such a radi- cal change as the elimination of milk, eggs and meat, but said he had fol- lowed such a diet for many years “with immense profit. Farm animals, with the exception of horses, he classed as a liability and hazard to the farmer, for “they eat up more than three-fourths of the foods our farms produce and return in food products only a small part of what logg Declares Farms of Future Will Operate Without Animals or Fowls _charged THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D.

The cost of food would be re- duced to a minimum fraction of pres- ent cost.” o CONVICTED OF ESPIONAGE. Three Esthonians in Russia Are Given Death and Jail Sentences.

ELIZABETH PLAN GOMPLETED Veterans’ Bureau Completes Program for Handling o Patients. Completing its program of decentral- izatlon and discharge of patients from St. Elizabeth's Hospital, reducing the number by about 600 since last June, the Veterans' Bureau has completely reorganized the method of control of its patients in that institution. ¥or the first time a visiting neuro- psychiatrist has been assigned to the bureau patients at St. Elizabeth's from the central effice of the Veterans' Bureau and the system of having a medical officer in charge has been abandoned for a new plan which 'ge a con- tact representative. Millan, regional manager for this dis- trict, for the good of the patients themselves. Furthermore, a periodic survey has been ordered on each patient every few months in order to check up on his status from all angles, including medical, compensa- tion, guardianship, insurance, and all other phases in which the Govern- ment has a responsibility. Patients under the Veterans' Bu- reau at St. Elizabeth’s, who numbered 976 last June, have been reduced to 380 at the present time. This was accomplished through some discharges and a great many transfers of patients to hospitals nearer their own homes. Shifts in personnel having charse | of the patients at the hospital for the Veterans' Bureau resulted in transfer of Dr. Antonio Rodrieguez, who had been medical llaison officer in chasge to the Veterans' Bureau Hospital at Philadelphia. He has been supplant- ed at St. Elizabeth’s by Hoyt B. Harper, who is not a doctor, but rep- resents the bureau, in charge of their office there as contact representative. New Post Filled. The new post of visiting neuro- psychiatrist has been filled by Dr. Ord Everman, from the central office of the Veterans’ Bureau. Dr. Ever man makes frequent calls upon the Veterans' Bureau patlents at the hos- ROSEANALD GVES HOvARD S50 Chicagoan Contributes To- ward $250,000 Fund for Medical School Here.

Drastic Reforms Are Started Look- ing to Economy. MOSCOW, Russia, February 18 (#). —Fighting the alarming increase in the cost of production and in retail prices, the Soviet government began drastic reforms in the administration of almost every industrial department. Several Communists were dismissed from important government positions and given minor places becausa of their faflure to execute the Communist party’s orders looking to economy. — Many Federal and municipal prej ects are being constructed in the Dominican Republic. “The New Scientific Antiseptic for BAD BREATH At All Druggists i ail G T Snd"Prov s Remeds” of the two countries.

Water rights, relating to the Great TLakes, bulk conspicuously in the Ca- nadian-American diplomatic ;nc}ul’e. The withdrawal of water from Iake Michigan by the city of Chicago, for sanitary and drainage uses, concerns Canada no less than it interests the American States which also abut fl_\e Great Lakes.

See Need for Patrol. Uncle Sam and the jand of the mapls leaf maintain no fortifications along their far-flung border for mili- tary purposes, but both countries have come to realize the necessity of rigid grontler policing to prevent smuggling. American hibition conjures up a ave pmmn for Canada and the Tnited States, meaase; traffic in lr{ql\;:: ppss the border is in more ol r:cpsga“', progress. Other contraband lso filters across the frontier. Silk, originating in Japan and transported to eastern Canada from Vancouver, is one of the commodities sometimes smuggled into the United States. The American immigration statutes aily bring up controversial questions With the Dominion. Many European- born are in the habit of emigrating to Canada, obtaining Canadian citizen- ship, and then seeking admission to the United States regardless of quotas that apply to the countries of their respective origins. Canada does not gee eye to eye with us on a number of fundamental immigration affairs. For instance, the Dominion holds that a Britisher who has become a natural- ized Canadian has the right to enter the United States as a Canadian, and should not be subject to the British quota restriction. Heads Big Company. The Canadian Minister at Wash- ington has not yet turned 40, having been born in 1887. He is the heir of one of the Dominion’s great captains of industry, the late Chester D. Massey, founder of the Massey-Harris agricultural implements business, which is the only serious world com- petitor of the International Harvester Co. of the United States. The new envoy is a graduate of St. Andrew's College and the University of Toron“o. Later he did post-graduate work at Oxford, majoring in modern history. In 1913 Mr. Massey returned to his Toronto alma mater as a_lecturer. Soon after the World War began Mr. Massey became commanding officer of one of the Canadian army's principal schools of musketry, with the rank of lieutenant colonel. Some 30,000 of the Canadian infantry con- tingent sent overseas were trained under Massey's direction. After the armistice he was made a director of the Massey-Harris Corporation, rising to the secretar reasurership and afterward to the presidency. was in the latter office, a few months ago, that Premier Mackenzie King found Mr. Massey and persuaded him to serve the Dominion in the impor- tant post upon which he has just entered at Washington. Essentially Boyish. The following pen picture of Mr. Massey was recently drawn in Lon- Jdon by a friend and admirer: “Only in appearance does the newest plenipotentiary at the court of Uncle Sam confess his minority. Broad in scholarship, case-hardened in business experience, wise beyond his age in many things, Vincent Massey, in the flesh, is essentially boyish. “His talent for and love of ama- teur theatrical ventures has meant a great deal to his native city, where, due in no small measure to his aid, the Little Theater movement has had remarkable growth. “Until the elections of a year ago AMaseey had taken no active interest in Canadlan politics. His recent participation has resulted from a gradual awakening of a genuine de- sire for public service. Wealth and the leisure to travel have helped to make him a cosmopolite; native ability and diligent cultivation have iven him wisdom and understand- ng; a kindly nature has made him & favorite among his fellows—and ordinary common sense has kept him an Oédlmlr}' citizen of the world. His &reat chance comes in Washington.” (Covyright. 1927.) box "be: 30c—Advertise: they consume."” vould be obliged,” ey consume.
